EQLOVESMUSIC PRODUCERS CREATES ANTHEM FOR EQLOVESFESTIVAL 2018
EQLovesFestival is a Swedish initiative in Gothenburg which aims to highlight the female role models within music production specifically - where women are severely underrepresented in the music industry. Female producers have been left unheard of ever since the beginning of the history of music recording and production, by systematically dismissing or not giving them the credit they deserve. 95% of producers in the music industry who are highlighted and represented are male.
EQLovesFestival 2018 will take place on both Augst 24th and 25th at Brewhouse Arena in Gothenburg. The festival aims to inspire with live interviews among music journalists.
These are the anthems created for EQLovesFestival 2018 in different genres and versions!
The release is a collaboration with Swedish Propellerhead Reason and Ehrlunds Michrophones which are used in the productions.
The producers have been blogging about "the making of the anthems" on this webpage: https://anthem.eqlovesfestival.com
The original song is written by Melisha which is one of the project leaders of EQLovesFestival 2018.
And the message in the song is about how we feel that the Change of Equality is in the air and we want to be a part of the change together.
